Mechanical Engineering Intern

At Salas O’Brien we tell our clients that we’re engineered for impact. This passion for making a difference applies just as much to our team as it does to our projects. That’s why we’re committed to living our values every day: inspiring, achieving, and connecting as shared owners of our success with a focus on a sustainable future.

Work tasks will vary and require flexibility and desire for diversity in the engineering field. You will acquire time management, communication, and CAD drafting skills, as well as have the chance to apply engineering concepts.

You Will Be a Great Fit If

  • You are currently enrolled in a Mechanical Engineering program at a four-year ABET university or college with preferred targeted graduation date within 1 year (preferred). Will consider interns who are graduating within 2 years, depending on our needs.
